Healthcare operations and compliance are usually treated as separate problems, handed to separate vendors, and held together by spreadsheets and paper checklists nobody trusts. The result is a familiar frustration: facilities that are busy but not clear, compliant on paper but anxious before every audit. When an inspector asks for evidence, the scramble begins.
Zosimos Inc. was founded to close that gap. We are a Calgary-based healthcare consulting and technology firm serving organizations across Canada, pairing hands-on regulatory and operational consulting with an in-house software team, so facilities get one partner who can both diagnose the problem and build the solution.
We think about this work like a puzzle: a facility's operations, compliance obligations, and systems are pieces that should interlock into one clear picture. Too often they sit scattered, with gaps where a piece is simply missing. Our job is to find the pieces, fit them together — and build the ones that don't exist yet. You can read more about our mission and values on the About page.
What we do
Our specialty is College of Physicians and Surgeons accreditation — and the operational systems that make compliance durable. Six services, one interlocking practice:
- CPSA NHSF accreditation support. Expert support for non-hospital surgical facility accreditation in Alberta: readiness assessments, policies, IPC programs, evidence management, and mock surveys: to get your facility accredited and keep it there between cycles. (New to the program? Start with our guide to NHSF accreditation in Alberta.)
- CPSA IPC inspection readiness. Gap assessments against the IPC standards, written IPC programs, reprocessing and hand-hygiene evidence, staff training, and corrective-action tracking that turns findings into closed, documented fixes. (Unsure what an inspection involves? See What is an IPC inspection?)
- Accreditation under any provincial College. The names differ (CPSA, CPSBC, CPSS, CPSM, CPSO), but every College asks the same question: is care outside a hospital delivered safely? Preparation grounded in CPSA's standards transfers directly, especially across Western Canada's shared foundation of accreditation standards.
- Healthcare business setup. Opening a new clinic or surgical facility? We take you from concept to compliant and accredited: a sequenced licensing and regulatory plan, accreditation guidance, and a complete, tailored library of policies, procedures, SOPs, forms, and templates — not just a checklist of what's missing.
- Business operations consulting. Workflow design, staffing models, and revenue-cycle optimization. We map how your facility runs today, find the friction, and redesign the systems so the day-to-day runs predictably, judged by whether it survives a busy Tuesday.
- Custom healthcare software. Quality management systems, accreditation trackers, electronic policy libraries, and operational dashboards, purpose-built in-house to retire the paper checklists and spreadsheets, while strengthening the evidence trail compliance depends on.
Full detail on every service (including FAQs) is on the Services page, and you can see who we serve across the care continuum.
Why facilities choose us
We're grounded in the regulator's own standards. Our practice is built on the published standards your facility is actually held to: governance, infection prevention and control, medical device reprocessing, medications, credentials, emergency preparedness, and quality management. We prepare you for the survey the inspector will really run, so your first survey is a confirmation, not a scramble.
We ship real software, not slideware. Zosimos Timesheet is live today on web with native iOS and Android apps, in production and in daily use, running real time, attendance, and leave for real teams. It's proof that when we say "we'll build it," we mean it. Consultants who can ship production software are rare; software teams who understand College standards are rarer. We are both, under one roof — every line built in-house, in Canada. See the whole product line.
Integrity you can verify before you spend a dollar. We tell facilities the truth about what's working and what isn't — even when it's not what they hoped to hear. And we put value first: free, scored readiness checks, a plain-language glossary, and practical guides across this Insights section are published openly, so you can judge our thinking before you ever book a call.
Changes that stick after we leave. We design for the real day-to-day, not an idealized org chart. New systems are documented, the people who run them are trained, and measures are put in place so improvements hold after the engagement ends, with corrective-action tracking and scheduled reviews keeping you audit-ready year-round.
Who we serve
Opening a new clinic or surgical facility? Most founders don't have months to write every policy from a blank page while also negotiating a lease and hiring staff. We sequence the licensing, legislative, and regulatory requirements for your facility type and location into a clear plan, supply the complete documentation foundation, and guide you through accreditation, so you meet each requirement in the right order before opening day. Start here.
Already operating? Whether it's an NHSF accreditation cycle approaching, a CPSA IPC inspection on the calendar, findings that need a credible corrective-action response, or simply operations that feel harder than they should — we meet you where you are. Revenue-cycle leaks, staffing models, policy libraries gone stale, evidence scattered across binders: these are exactly the puzzles we fit back together.
Start free: three readiness checks, scored instantly
Before you spend anything, take one of our free self-checks. Each is a short screening version of the areas a complete readiness assessment examines. Answer honestly, get a scored result on the spot, and see where you stand:
- Surgical Facility Accreditation: for operating NHSFs facing an accreditation cycle (8 domains).
- IPC & Device Reprocessing: for clinics preparing for an IPC inspection (6 domains).
- New Clinic or Surgical Facility: are you ready to open? From licensing to day one (11 domains).
Let's put the pieces together
Book a free 30-minute readiness call or get in touch about your facility — a new build, an upcoming survey, an inspection finding, or a workflow that needs to run better. We'll tell you honestly what we see.
